Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Primary objective is to study the relevance of non-invasive test (NITs) in predicting disease stage (diagnostic biomarker) and outcome (predictive biomarker) in patients with suspected or established liver disease and cirrhosis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Non-invasive tests (NITs) may complement and even reduce the need for liver biopsy in the diagnosis and follow up care of patients with chronic liver disease (CLD). NITs either include serum biomarkers (direct or indirect) or ultrasound-based tests, including vibration controlled transient elastography (VCTE), or a combination of both incorporated into several surrogate scores.
